Answer to Question 1

B
A person diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder would most likely be diagnosed as being a risk for violence directed at others. Individuals with this disorder display a persistent disregard for the rights and well-being of others. Although violence against others is common among people diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder, it is not a necessary trait for the diagnosis to be made.

Answer to Question 2

C
Reaction formation is the development of behavior patterns or conscious attitudes that are the opposite of what one really feels or would like to do.
